She Aint No Caroline Ingalls!

Whenever I'm tempted to say something on Facebook about politics, religion or bodily functions, I say it to my mom instead. Nothing offends that woman! Seriously, the cruder and more controversial, the better.

A few days ago, my mom text me during work to demand that I immediately google "Zum Bum." So, thanks to the wonders of the internet, I found out that "Zum Bum" is a freshening spray for "bums" (butts, asses, anuses.) WTH, Mom?!! Half amused and half disgusted, I texted my mom to thank her for the disturbing image she had now imprinted in my brain. I also admitted that her randomly "googling" on the internet was a scary thought, considering her bawdy sense of humor and precarious curiosity. This statement seemed to only inspire her. Then, I messaged my sister to see if Mom had shared her new "find" with her. Sure enough! And in response, my sister had suggested that Mom spend her internet "free time" playing online Wheel of Fortune or Solitaire instead.

As expected, Mom, laughed off her daughters' caution and suggestions. Instead, she sent a follow-up text proudly letting us know that she had just found out what "fap" means. Thanks, UrbanDictionary.com, my mother and her horrified daughters will never be the same.
